Ever wondered what your grandmother meant when she told you to frame thissen? Or maybe she told you to stop your chelpin'. After all that, if you're still out laikin' taws in t'ginnel, watch out or she'll land you a ding!
This book will help you to understand the unique and ancient Yorkshire dialect and have you speaking like a native in no time. It starts with a dictionary to help you develop and altogether new vocabulary, and you can test yourself with the quirky one-liners that Louise has selected from a variety of sources.
As your confidence grows you can progress to longer tales and anecdotes, all chosen to illustrate different aspects of the delightful Yorkshire dialect as spoken by the locals in days gone by. Learn about brass bands, Halifax legs and the last English witch to be burned at the stake, and develop your skills as you go!
